EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Armoured Tractor, ploughing fields littered with shells and bombs, 31st August 1967" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the remarkable efforts of Forestry Commission volunteers as they join forces to reclaim a staggering 900 acres of land on a Royal Artillery range for forestry work in Trawsfynydd, Merioneth, North Wales. The photograph captures an armoured tractor fearlessly navigating through fields strewn with remnants of war - shells and bombs that once posed great danger. It serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination displayed by these brave individuals who risked their lives to restore safety and productivity to this scarred landscape. In the backdrop of this powerful scene lies the essence of rural life - farms and farming. This image encapsulates both the destructive power of military conflict juxtaposed against nature's ability to heal itself when given time and care. Taken by talented photographer Lennie Llandudno during the 1960s, this snapshot freezes a defining moment where human ingenuity meets perseverance. It is an ode to those unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes ensuring our lands are safe for generations to come. As we reflect upon this historic event captured within these frames, let us remember not only the sacrifices made but also celebrate how unity can transform devastation into hope for a better future.
